Climate change could be an existential risk to Burning Man, Matthew Hutson wrote, in 2023. “Logistically, financially, ethically, That Thing in the Desert might become untenable.”
Will the Rains Extinguish Burning Man?
The desert festival thrives on unpredictability, but a changing climate may be a bridge too far.

It pisses me off that gay people are hated mostly because of some poorly translated ancient outdated book full of other bullshit idiots base their entire lives on. Religion is a curse, man.

The PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA is planning to use the US military to invade US cities that vote Democratic because, in addition to raping children, two things that animate him most are rectifying narcissistic injury and hating Black people.

Fox News has been running the story of how a white man was beaten at a bar by black patrons for using the n-word.
This is literally what happened but still not the complete story.
The man entered the space, harassed the patrons and called people slurs for a long time. He wouldn’t leave and

Hacked. Yes. By tech bros getting back at the "normies" for invading their tech domain.
Today is chaos. So many agencies are breaking down across the board from FDA to CDC to VA. Swaths of SSA are down.
The American government is being hacked by the American government. Medical research, medicines, & social security accessibility are all questionable.
It's only Tuesday.

Totally get the frustration—I feel it too. But blaming the military or expecting them to act is a cop-out. It’s our job to keep criminals out of the WH, not theirs. A military coup would be even more unconstitutional than anything Trump’s done. You don’t want the military running the government!

used to not have toilets, shade or drinking water cause bosses said it was too expensive. With pesticides we would work too close to the spray. Thanks to Cesar Chavez they changed those things. Join us in marching for Cesar Chávez - Francisco, CA farmworker, 28 yrs #WeFeedYou

NIH has rescinded its scientific integrity policy. Hard to see this as anything other than clearing the way for shoddy research on things like vaccines. Regardless of the rationale, it's bad news for public health.
